Angles & Special Angle Pairs Practice

Front

What are vertical angles?

Back

Vertical angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines intersect. They are always equal.

Front

What are linear pairs of angles?

Back

Linear pairs are two adjacent angles that form a straight line. They are supplementary, meaning their measures add up to 180 degrees.

Front

What are supplementary angles?

Back

Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 180 degrees.

Front

What are alternate exterior angles?

Back

Alternate exterior angles are pairs of angles that lie outside two parallel lines and on opposite sides of a transversal.

Front

What are corresponding angles?

Back

Corresponding angles are pairs of angles that are in the same position on two parallel lines in relation to a transversal.

Front

What is a transversal?

Back

A transversal is a line that intersects two or more lines at different points.

Front

What is a straight angle?

Back

A straight angle is an angle that measures exactly 180 degrees.

Front

What is the relationship between vertical angles?

Back

Vertical angles are always equal in measure.

Front

How do you identify corresponding angles?

Back

Corresponding angles can be identified as angles that occupy the same relative position at each intersection where a straight line crosses two others.

Front

What is the measure of a straight angle?

Back

The measure of a straight angle is 180 degrees.
